      Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can fix this?

      Question: if I install Wineskin can I, then, point to the game installed on Steam? My CO2 is bought under Steam so the game is actually under the usual tree of Steam directories...

      Thanks a ton for this!
      I recently stumbled across the game and I'm super excited to try it out... from what I've seen watching some play-throughs on youtube this game concept is exquisite... very, very excited to give it a whirl.

      For future reference, perhaps related to the problems Hexaotl encountered(?), when using the default choices for installation location (LnLGames/Command Ops 2) everything was installed into the .app object (which I had named "ComOp2") here:

      ~/Applications/Wineskin/ Ops 2

      So, the C drive actually means ~/Applications/Wineskin/

      One more step was needed to make the run (the game) as an executable when double-clicked:

      In ~/Applications/Wineskin/
      Right Click > Show Package Contents > Double-Click Wineskin > Advanced
      Under the "Configuration" tab
      In the "Windows EXE:" field, put
      /LnLGames/Command Ops 2/CmdOps.exe

      Other notes:
      - Like Alan Lewis, for the first set of instructions I didn't ever end up seeing "10. ...On the last screen, uncheck Visual C++ runtime..."
      - In the second set of instructions don't forget step "5. Select 'vcrun2010' from the 'dll' section and install it."

      Sorry for the return posting; but, for closure completeness on this:

      - The wineskin solution ended up not working -- menu's were not persistent and the program immediately crashed upon touching any of the graphical tools.
      - It turns out that that wineskin just wraps wine, and wine alone works. Briefly:
      - you need brew because it lets you easily get XQuartz >= 2.7.7
      - the graphical download gets you the 32-bit version of things:
      - the program still crashes upon touching any of the graphical tools, but the game works works great otherwise.

      If requested I can try to provide some more step by step details, but the following references were sufficient for me:

      Finally, my motivation for doing this is how pleased I am about ComOps2 as a game/concept.
      I'm an old school panzer general guy and I guess panzer corps is a nice reincarnation of that idea.
      But I'm not into the newer things... UoC2, PC2... maybe I'm just not branching out enough, but all these games are just so flash-in-the-pan for me... I get very little sense of continuity or progress from play session to play session... basically something about unit-set building is never quite satisfying and I'd always rather just start a new campaign than get back into the mode of my last one. Another big issue is that later scenarios are never quite as challenging/satisfying compared to initial scenarios. I don't know... I've just min-max'd my whole army in the previous scenarios and the subsequent scenarios just don't have sparks for me.

      So, with ComOps2, I think the design team has hit upon two attributes that turn out to be extremely important and awesome for me.
      1. every scenario is fresh and challenging and awesome because it's designed to be that way... stand alone.
      2. I seem to stop caring about perfectionist playing with this game, and instead I just let the scenario unfold... it just seems so much more relevant and satisfying this way to me... like, it's not gamey... it's more historical, or something.

      So, consider this my tip of the hat to the ComOps2 dev squad.
      You've done something really exceptionally excellent here, boys.
      Thanks for the good work.

      I thought wine no longer worked, as any 32bit apps were no longer supported in OS Catalina.
